When students and teachers at School 16in Rochester,NY, start the new school year in a newer school building,they'll leave their old building's list of problems behind.
As teachers finish unloading boxes and setting up their new classro?oms,they hope the newer buildings will give students renewed pride in their school. Ed?ucation experts say the move could also bring a rise to the school's flagging test scores,because better school buildings actually improve academic performance.
When School 16 was moved to a newer building,the school's old building was in terrible condition：bathrooms lacked sinks and privacy; stairs were missing safety rails; and the 100-year-old building was crowded. Students describe peeling paint and rats in the classrooms.
Teacher Michele Michel says the poor condition of the old building weakened the school of its spirit. "You look at that and it's like,why? Why do you want to take care of your school?" Michel says. "So what if I throw a piece of paper on the ground? It doesn't make a difference; there's other paper on the ground."
More than bad looks,bad buildings are a drain on academic performance,ac?cording to Glen Earthman,a professor. "Students see surroundings that are not very pleasant,and it does reduce their desire to learn”，Earthman says.
He says students who attend schools in disrepair score 3 to 10 percentage points lower on state tests than students in satisfactory buildings,and the effects are worse over the years students spend in the buildings.
With bigger hallways and larger classrooms,teacher Michele Michel says the boost to student confidence in the new building will improve academics. "I think if you come in and you're happy,you know,you will be all about this place," Michel says. "I think you will get it,and you'll get more successful."
But Jaida Thomas,an eighth grader,says she is not sure all of her peers will take pride in their new building. "With the negative people in the school? they'll probably just mess up the school," Thomas says. "They'll just mess it up for themselves."

Y. E. S. ―a small group of high school students is not just learning about the envi?ronment around them,but they're actually doing something to improve it.
"This group has done a series of projects,from recy?cling about 600 pounds of tennis shoes,to over 50 cellpho?nes ,"said Patrick Merrick,a school teacher and Y. E. S. adviser.
The idea for environmental projects came about two years ago and it gradually became a part of an environmen?tal science class. In class,students would learn about a topic? design a project,carry it out and then take it to the community（社區(qū)) .
"Before every topic,we spent several weeks learning about the how,what and why of the idea," said Maddie Frank and Shawn Hanson,students in Y. E. S.
One of the goals,Frank and Hanson said,was to find out how much energy their school used throughout a school day.
"We decided to carry out a school energy audit (審計) ”，they said. " We divided up the classrooms among the students in our class. Each student recorded how much energy was being used in each classroom."
"We have been able to save money with the help of our school energy audit,make money with both the shoe and the cellphone recycling,keep a large amount of garbage out of the landfills (廢物填埋地) with those recycling projects and make it possible for community members to use energysaving things”，F(xiàn)rank and Hanson said.
While the group is working towards making a differ?ence in the environment around them,they express their thankfulness for people's support.
"Without the help of our community and school,we would not have been able to make these recycling projects possible," Frank and Hanson said.
20. What can we learn from the first four paragraphs?

B. Y. E. S. was set up by Maddie Frank and Shawn Hanson.
C. Students carry out the projects designed by their teachers.
